Rapper Snoop Dogg wants to show his love for country music so released a new song. “My Medicine” is dedicated to the late singer Johnny Cash.
The gangsta rapper Snoop Dogg loves country music. He wears a cowboy hat and dedicates the video to the late Johnny Cash and calls him the “real American gangster."

He also praised him at the recent CMT Awards in April and told the audience: "His music touched people like myself, which you probably didn't know,"

The song features country legend Willie Nelson, country singer Brad Paisley and "Dancing With the Stars" champion Julianne Hough.

Snoop Dogg said he loves country music and calls the music genre “the most underrated music in the world”.

He told People.com:

"It always has the test of time, it's great, it's heartfelt, and it touches people no matter what color they are or where they're from."

I hope the country fans embrace him and maybe he'll win one of the music awards in the next CMT.

Here are the lyrics for the song “My Medicine”:


(One, two...)

[Intro: Snoop]
Yeah, I like to dedicate this record right here to my main man
Johnny Cash, a real American gangster
I got my nephew Whitey Ford on the guitar
Young Trev' on the drums
Grand Ole Opry, here we come, uhh

[Snoop Dogg]
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jacked up the spoon on the candlestick
Dopestick pimpin on the one-trick pony
Yeah she kinda skinny but she gets my money
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine

Yeah, you know I got to have that medicine
That prescription medicine baby
Y'know, purple, orange, green

[Snoop Dogg]
Jack starts hangin 'round with some fiends
Got strung out, sold the cow for beans
Told young wifey, "I love ya honey
But you gotta hit the streets, go and get my money"
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine

Yeah, the mo' dedicated the mo' medicated
Can you feel me?

[Snoop - singing]
Girl my love's gonna last, just as long as my high
(And I'm high all day, every day)
You can trust every word I'm gonna say will be a lie

[Snoop Dogg]
Haha, yeah I lie sometimes
What's the use of the truth if you can't get a lie sometimes baby?
Now dig this

Jack starts a track up and down the hill
Got to walkin thinkin ace what he told to Jill
Come rain, come shine, come snow or if it's sunny
Get the fuck out, come and get my money
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine

Yeah
They say you can't buy me love, but you damn sure can buy me bud

[Snoop - singing]
Girl my love's gonna last, just as long as my high
(Oh I'm so high right now, how 'bout you?)
You can trust every word I'm gonna tell you is a lie
(Liar liar, haha, pants on fire)
Girl I love you (I love you though)
Yeahhhh!

    oops i should have read the words to the song first before I said that I loved it.

    It sure isn't the words that most country songs would have. He is bring his garbage into country. Shame on him as it sure ain't good country.

    No I don't believe so.
    He might have turned over in his grave when he heard this song.

    Old hard drinking, Meth popping, "tried every drug there was to try" outlaw, jail bird Johnny Cash offended by lyrics?

    I doubt it. He was the Snoop Dogg of his generation. ;o)

    I'm still in recovery from Buck Owen's version of Lead Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven".

    LOL! Well, if the song lyrics really meant something other than what he sings above, it might not be too bad to listen to.
